The movie is based on Mitch Albom's book of the same title. Starring Jon Voight, Ellen Burstyn, Jeff Daniels. You can see my review of the book here.
I was impressed at how closely the movie followed the book. There was not a lot missing or added to the story as is the case in many book-to-movie transformations. Jon Voight was believable as Eddie the Maintenance Man.
Anyone who enjoyed the book will enjoy the movie too. Go out and rent it today.
About Me
- Ter
- I am a bereaved mother and wife. I began this blog to help me look for the "good things" in life after my daughter, "Babybear", died in July 2005. Three years later, her daddy, my husband, "Bear", died in November 2008. (You'll find a link to their stories on my blog) And now, as difficult as it is, I continue to look for the good things in my life as I learn my new normal with my pup, "Furrybear", at my side. And the angels on my shoulder...

Thanks for your reviews.... I love and appreciate them :)
I saw this on TV shortly after reading the book - you are right. It does an excellent job of following the book. Very good movie. :)
